Editor's note: For the latest updates from Chiefs vs. Jets on Sunday Night Football, follow our live coverage here.

For just the second time in six games since 2007, the Dallas Cowboys defeated the New England Patriots — and they did so in dominating fashion, handing Bill Belichick a 38-3 thrashing. Earlier Sunday, the reigning three-time AFC East champion Bills (2-1) dominated the Miami Dolphins 48-20 behind a huge day from Josh Allen, Stefon Diggs and the offense. Check out all the highlights and in-game action from both of these games. Here's the complete NFL Week 4 scoreboard.

Bills vs. Dolphins highlights

The AFC East still belongs to the Buffalo Bills. Josh Allen threw four touchdown passes and ran for another, Stefon Diggs had three touchdown catches, and the Bills drowned the Dolphins 48-20 on Sunday. Both teams scored on their first two possessions of the game, but Buffalo outscored Miami 27-6 the rest of the game.

Running back James Cook added a touchdown run for the Bills, who are 3-1 and travel to London next week to meet the Jaguars.

Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa was 25 of 35 for 282 yards with a touchdown pass and an interception. But star receivers Tyreek Hill (three catches, 58 yards) and Jaylen Waddle (four catches, 46 yards) were kept in check. Miami was led by rookie running back De’Von Achane, who had 101 yards and two rushing touchdowns in the first half. Since Allen joined the Bills in 2018, the Dolphins have lost 10 of their last 12 games against Buffalo, including their playoff loss earlier this January. — Safid Deen

Cowboys vs. Patriots highlights

The Cowboys dismantled the Patriots 38-3 thanks to a handful of outstanding defensive plays — a strip-sack by Dante Fowler, a subsequent scoop-and-score by Leighton Vander Esch and two picks by DeRon Bland, including a 54-yard pick six — and a red zone breakthrough. Here are a few of the top plays so far.

Bills-Dolphins recap

Now is not the time to declare the Buffalo Bills as destined to finally get over the hump this season and fulfill their promise for a Super Bowl mission. As much a 48-20 beatdown of the Miami Dolphins on Sunday might have provided a glimpse of that – Josh Allen was amazing, Stefon Diggs was incredible, Sean McDermott’s defense was spectacular – it’s way too early to predict what will happen in January and February. Yet it’s not too early to declare this: The Bills are still very much the kings of the AFC East. That was the takeaway statement attached to the complete and dominating victory that puts Buffalo (3-1) back at the top of the division the franchise has won for three years running.

How tall is Deuce Vaughn of Dallas Cowboys?

Deuce Vaughn, all 5 feet, 5 inches of him, realizes that at least one thing hasn’t changed as he tries to transition to the NFL with the Dallas Cowboys. It’s the doubts about his size. Vaughn, a sixth-round rookie from Kansas State, is challenged to survive in a forest where just about everybody towers above him.

“I’ve been doubted my whole life,” Vaughn, 21, told USA TODAY Sports following a recent training camp practice. “Coming out of high school, I had maybe three offers. Going to Kansas State, I was the ninth running back out of nine running backs on that depth chart. I was able to fight, claw and scratch, and wound up starting the second game of my career and play three years.”

Tre'Davious White injury update

Tre'Davious White is being evaluated for an Achilles injury, the Buffalo Bills said, after being carted off the field late in the third quarter against the Dolphins. White was injured on a fourth-down stop by the Bills while defending Dolphins star receiver Tyreek Hill. He knew it, throwing his helmet backwards as he sat on the field. — Safid Deen

Josh Allen touchdown

The Bills’ beatdown of the Dolphins continues with Josh Allen’s 11-yard touchdown run to start the fourth quarter. The Bills have a 48-20 lead. And the AFC East very much looks like it still belongs to Buffalo. — Safid Deen

Stefon Diggs salary

The contract for Bills receiver Stefon Diggs has an annual average value of $24 million. Diggs' four-year deal is worth $96 million. Here’s the full list of the NFL’s highest-paid receivers.

Stefon Diggs touchdown hat trick

Josh Allen is up to four touchdown passes on the day, and Stefon Diggs has caught three of them. Diggs beat Dolphins cornerback Kader Kohou again, this time to catch a 13-yard touchdown and increase the Bills’ lead to 41-20. This marks Diggs' fourth career three-touchdown performance.

The other big play on Buffalo’s drive: Deonte Harty made a catch while on his knees, and got up to dodge a Dolphins defender to convert a first down in the red zone. — Safid Deen

Micah Hyde interception

In the third quarter, Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa let a pass sail over a receiver and Bills safety Micah Hyde made him pay with an interception. Hyde returned it 23 yards to the Miami 25-yard line.

Tyler Bass field goal extends Bills’ lead over Dolphins

Bills kicker Tyler Bass nailed a 33-yard field goal to put Buffalo up 34-20 over the Dolphins with 5:21 left in the third quarter.

Braxton Berrios touchdown cuts into Bills lead over Dolphins

Tagovailoa threw a 11-yard touchdown pass to Braxton Berrios, but failed to convert two points when his pass to Tyreek Hill was incomplete. Still, the Dolphins narrowed the score on their first possession in the third quarter, trailing the Bills 31-20.

Tagovailoa had a first-down run and a 17-yard completion to Jaylen Waddle during the drive. — Safid Deen

Tua Tagovailoa MVP candidate 

Tua Tagovailoa was helpless, sitting at home as he watched his Miami Dolphins fall in just their third playoff game in 21 years on the road against the Buffalo Bills in January. But his path to becoming an NFL MVP favorite during Miami’s torrid start this season was already underway. 

So, can he lead the Dolphins to a Week 4 comeback against the Bills?

Armstead Miami Dolphins injury update

Buffalo Bills vs. Miami Dolphins halftime score

Tyler Bass kicked a 53-yard field goal with 1:39 left in the half to pad the score, capitalizing after Dolphins running back Raheem Mostert fumbled.

The Dolphins traded blows with Buffalo, with rookie running back De’Von Achane scoring two rushing touchdowns, but it was Miami’s offense that slowed down first in this game. Dolphins starting left tackle Terron Armstead left the game with a knee injury, and is questionable to return. Miami is already without starting center Connor Williams. — Safid Deen

Tyler Bass field goal puts Bills up 31-14 vs. Dolphins

Bills kicker Tyler Bass nailed a 53-yard field goal on fourth-and-14 with 1:39 left in the second quarter to extend Buffalo's lead over the Dolphins to 31-14.

It’s Diggs’ second touchdown catch of the game, and he’s up to 107 yards receiving. Allen is up to three touchdown passes on 14-of-16 passing with 201 yards. — Safid Deen

Dolphins with first punt in the game

We’ve got the first punt in the Dolphins-Bills game. After five possessions, the Dolphins are first to punt in this game. The Dolphins should consider themselves lucky it’s a punt: Braxton Berrios recovered a fumble by Raheem Mostert on third and 18 that could’ve given Buffalo prime position in their own red zone. Instead, the Bills will start on their side of the field for their fourth possession, already scoring on their first three. — Safid Deen

Stefon Diggs’ Stone Cold Steve Austin touchdown celebration

Bills receiver Stefon Diggs channeled his inner Stone Cold Steve Austin after scoring his touchdown in the second quarter against the Dolphins. Diggs grabbed two beers from fans in the stands, and celebrated just like the WWE Hall of Fame wrestler would after giving the Bills a 21-14 lead. The touchdown celebration gets a 10/10. — Safid Deen

Stefon Diggs touchdown puts Bills up 21-14 over Dolphins

Stefon Diggs found a weak spot in the Dolphins defense, and Josh Allen made them pay. Allen’s 11-yard touchdown pass to Diggs gives Buffalo the lead again, 21-14, with 10:02 left in the second quarter. Dolphins defensive back Kader Kohou had a 43-yard pass interference penalty, while defending Diggs to flip the field in Buffalo’s favor.

It’s been a heavyweight fight so far, with both teams scoring on every offensive possession in this game. — Safid Deen

De’Von Achane college stats, draft

The Dolphins drafted Achane in the third round of the 2023 draft (84th pick) out of Texas A&M. The Missouri City, Texas, native rushed for 2,376 yards and 21 touchdowns in three seasons (30 games) for the Aggies.

De’Von Achane track

Achane also ran track for Texas A&M, competing in the 2021 and 2022 indoor and outdoor seasons. He received All-SEC honors in 2021 for being a part of the 4x100m team that placed third.

De’Von Achane touchdown ties Bills-Dolphins at 14-14

The Dolphins and Bills are in a slugfest early. Dolphins rookie running back De’Von Achane scored his second touchdown of the game on a jet sweep, with Tyreek Hill lined up in the backfield, to tie the game at 14-14 early in the second quarter.

Achane has 27 touches this season, and he’s up to six total touchdowns in his NFL career, after four last week during Miami’s 70-point breakout against Denver. — Safid Deen

Josh Allen stats in first quarter vs. Dolphins

The Bills QB went 7 for 7 in the first quarter for 80 yards and a touchdown.

James Cook touchdown gives Bills 14-7 lead over Dolphins

We’ve seen the Eagles’ take over the NFL with their "tush push" touchdowns. How about Buffalo’s technique on their latest touchdown with quarterback Josh Allen just pushing his teammate from behind into the end zone? Bills running back James Cook scored the 1-yard touchdown run with Allen’s help, and Buffalo leads 14-7 with 1:14 left in the first quarter.

Cook appeared down inside the 1-yard line on a touchdown play, but the play stood after official review. Two drives by Buffalo, and both have ended in Bills touchdowns. — Safid Deen

De’Von Achane touchdown ties Bills-Dolphins score

The Dolphins responded to Buffalo’s game-opening touchdown with one of their own. Dolphins rookie running back De'Von Achane scored on a 3-yard run to tie the game 7-7 with 6:30 left in the first quarter. Two series, and touchdowns by both teams to start this AFC East showdown. The Dolphins’ drive was aided significantly by a catch from Jaylen Waddle, who came up with a tipped pass by Tua Tagovailoa after it was nearly intercepted, just before it hit the deck. — Safid Deen

Josh Allen touchdown to Gabe Davis

What’s one way to slow the NFL’s highest scoring offense? Scoring first. Josh Allen led the Bills offense down the field, and found receiver Gabe Davis for an 18-yard touchdown on Buffalo’s first drive of the game against Miami. Allen was 4 of 4 for 45 yards, with each pass going to a different receiver. Allen’s touchdown pass was set up by an unnecessary roughness penalty by Dolphins defensive back Kader Kohou, who pushed Bills receiver Stefon Diggs out of bounds after a 17-yard completion.  — Safid Deen

Miami Dolphins 70 points in Week 3

Ever hear a home team booed by their home fans after putting up 70 points in a rout? Well, it happened last week during the Miami Dolphins’ 70-20 blowout of the Denver Broncos on Sunday at Hard Rock Stadium, with coach Mike McDaniel pulling back rather than making a final push for the NFL record for points in a single game. The Dolphins could have trotted kicker Jason Sanders out to attempt a 45-yard field goal, which would have broken the mark that has stood for 57 years. Instead, McDaniel instructed backup quarterback Mike White to take a knee because he didn’t want to “chase” after points or an NFL record. And the boos started – and ended shortly after – as the clock ran out. — Safid Deen

Dolphins vs. Bills history

Including last season’s wild card game in January, the Bills are 4-1 in their last five matchups against the Dolphins. Buffalo won that wild card matchup 34-31. They split last season’s two regular-season contests, the Dolphins winning the first outing 21-19 and the Bills winning the second one 32-19.

The Dolphins are the NFL's hottest team. The Bills might actually have an answer for them.

Buffalo’s defense might be just the unit to slow Miami’s roll. Sure, after collecting nine sacks and four takeaways against Washington and poor Sam Howell, the Bills will get a step up in competition as Dolphins quarterback Tua Tagovailoa enters as the league’s top-rated passer and likely MVP front-runner.

The Bills rank second in the league for scoring defense (11.7 points per game) while leading the NFL in interceptions (7), takeaways (9), lowest passer rating allowed (54) and pressure rate (50.6%). They are tied for second in the NFL for sacks (12) and third for passing yards allowed.

Plus, the Bills have defeated Miami seven consecutive times in Buffalo.

On paper, Buffalo stands a chance better than most.

Yet this Miami offense, averaging 43.3 points per game, is more lethal than the unit that went to Buffalo last season and lost a pair of games by three-point margins in Week 15 and in the wild-card round of the playoffs, the latter coming with Tagovailoa sidelined while in the league's concussion protocol.

Miami Dolphins injury report Week 4

Here is the Dolphins’ Week 4 injury report.

Dolphins, Eagles or 49ers: Who will be last undefeated NFL team standing?

As the NFL puts a bow on the first month of the 2023 season, only three teams exit September with an unblemished record: the Philadelphia Eagles, Miami Dolphins and San Francisco 49ers.
